The Swiss got off to a slow start in the NHL when it came to goals. Above all, Pius Suter (27). The striker remained without a scorer in his first nine games for his new club, the Vancouver Canucks.
Some observers were already growing impatient. One person, under the fictitious name Chester Ming, continues writing. As if he had read it, the man from Wallisellen ZH replied immediately. Not on the social media platform, but on the ice. About 30 seconds later, Suter increased the score to 8:0.
The Swiss is gaining momentum and scoring in three of the four games. Just like with the Chicago Blackhawks and the Detroit Red Wings, the NL leading scorer of 2019/20 shows off his versatility. He not only has a nose for situations in front of the opponent’s goal, but is also extremely reliable defensively. «I don’t want to say that many players leave the defensive zone. But he stays there and if he didn’t do it, a goal would be conceded,” explains Canucks coach Rick Tocchet (59). “Everyone sees it, the young and the older players.”
The former top-ranked power forward and 1992 Stanley Cup winner with the Pittsburgh Penguins is enthusiastic when talking about Suter. “His hockey IQ is one of the reasons we signed him. I don’t think you can ever have enough of these players. I saw improvement in him every day.”
Suter’s achievements do not go unnoticed by the fans. On
The two-year contract, which pays Suter $1.6 million annually, is considered a bargain. The Zurich resident had previously earned twice as much in Detroit.
Just like before in Detroit and Chicago, Suter, who won the 2018 championship with the ZSC Lions, could not assume that he would win the Stanley Cup so quickly in Vancouver. The Canucks have missed the playoffs the last three years. But Suter mischievously told Blick before the start: “You never know…” And look: Vancouver has been a big surprise so far. With 11 wins from 15 games, the team around current competition top scorer Elias Petersson and attacking defender Quinn Hughes is currently at number 4 in the NHL.
